    Final word:
    Lokomotiv and Dinamo Mn. might be poor on points, but they certainly produced some intersting hockey. Lokomotiv was considered favorits for this game and acted according to that title. They won the game in each single period separately and are sure entitled to new points. Fast skating, creating chances and shooting from all positions adorned Lokomotiv side today.
    Dinamo on the other side presented similar face as alrady on some of their previous games. They are not particularly in a subordinate position on ice, but they loose intensity and power the more game expires. It just might be that this team lacks physical power.
